BELOW GRADE INSTALLATION
When it is not possible to meet the required vent terminal
clearances of 12" (305 mm) above grade level, a snor-
kel kit is recommended. It allows installation depth down
to 7" (178 mm) below grade level. The 7" (178 mm) is
measured from the center of the horizontal vent pipe as it
penetrates through the wall.
Ensure the side wall venting clearances are observed.
If venting system is installed below ground, we rec-
ommend a window well with adequate and proper
drainage to be installed around the termination area.
If installing a snorkel, a minimum 24" (610 mm) vertical
rise is necessary. The maximum horizontal run with the
24" vertical pipe is 36" (914 mm). This measurement is
taken from the collar of the fi replace (or transition elbow)
to the face of the exterior wall. See the Side wall Venting
Graph for extended horizontal run if the vertical exceeds
24" (610 mm).
1. Establish vent hole through the wall.
Page 22, Figure 36
2. Remove soil to a depth of approximately 16" (406 mm)
below base of snorkel. Install drain pipe. Install window
well (not supplied). Refi ll hole with 12" (305 mm) of
coarse gravel leaving a clearance of approximately 4"
(102 mm) below snorkel.
Figure 41
3. Install vent system.
4. Ensure a watertight seal is made around the vent pipe
coming through the wall.
5. Apply high temperature sealant caulking (supplied)
around the 4" and 7" snorkel collars.
6. Slide the snorkel into the vent pipes and secure to the
wall.
7. Level the soil so as to maintain a 4" (102 mm) clearance
below snorkel.
